Migrate from Zoey to Volusion: A Comprehensive How-To Guide
Seamlessly Transition Your E-commerce Store from Zoey to Volusion
Embarking on an e-commerce platform migration can feel like a daunting task, but with the right guidance, it’s an opportunity to revitalize your online store and enhance its capabilities. If you’re considering a switch from Zoey to Volusion, this expert guide will walk you through every critical step of the data transfer process. Volusion offers a robust platform known for its comprehensive feature set, making it an excellent choice for merchants looking for a powerful new home for their business. This article provides clear, actionable instructions to ensure a smooth transition, preserving your vital customer data, product details, and SEO standing.
Prerequisites for a Successful Migration
Before initiating the move of your online store from Zoey to Volusion, a few crucial preparations are necessary to ensure data integrity and minimize any potential downtime. Taking these steps seriously will pave the way for a trouble-free migration.
- Access Credentials for Both Platforms: You will need administrative access details for both your existing Zoey store and your new Volusion store. For Zoey, this includes your API credentials such as clientId, clientSecret, refreshToken, storeId, adminEmail, and adminPwd. Be mindful of Zoey's API rate limits and ensure HTTPS is enabled. For Volusion, you'll need your adminLogin, adminPwd, adminUrl, store URL, and the ability to define a bridgeLocation. For more details on collecting credentials, consult our guide on access credentials.
- Install Required Connectors: Both platforms require specific connectors for a successful data transfer. You will need the Cart2Cart Zoey Migration App installed on your Zoey store to facilitate the API connection. For Volusion, the Cart2Cart Volusion Migration module must be installed. Volusion also supports FTP access, which may be needed for bridge installation.
- Prepare Your Target Volusion Store: Ensure your Volusion store is set up and ready to receive data. While a completely fresh installation is often ideal, consider any initial configurations or design elements you wish to establish before populating it with your existing data. Read our tips on how to prepare your target store.
- Backup Your Zoey Data: Always create a complete backup of your Zoey store's data before starting any migration. This is a critical step to safeguard your information against any unforeseen issues during the replatforming process. Learn more about preparing your source store.
- Review Limitations: Be aware of any specific limitations. Zoey has API rate limits and requires custom app development, while Volusion has multi-store limitations for BigCommerce variants and excludes SEO options for blogs.
Performing the Migration: A Step-by-Step Guide
The migration process is streamlined using an automated migration wizard, guiding you through each stage. Here’s how to transfer your e-commerce data from Zoey to Volusion:
Step 1: Get Started with the Migration Wizard
Begin by navigating to the migration wizard interface. This is your starting point for setting up and managing your data transfer.
Step 2: Connect Your Zoey Source Store
In this step, you will specify Zoey as your source platform. Since Zoey utilizes an API-only connection, you will need to provide the necessary API credentials: clientId, clientSecret, refreshToken, storeId, adminEmail, and adminPwd. Ensure the Cart2Cart Zoey Migration App is already installed on your Zoey store to establish this connection. The system will validate these details to ensure a secure link to your current store.
Step 3: Configure Your Volusion Target Store
Next, you’ll specify Volusion as your target store. You will need to enter your new Volusion store's URL, along with your adminLogin, adminPwd, adminUrl, and the designated bridgeLocation. The Volusion platform uses a bridge connection method, so it's essential to have the Cart2Cart Volusion Migration module installed on your Volusion store. This module facilitates the secure transfer of data.
Step 4: Select Data Entities for Transfer
This critical step allows you to choose exactly which types of data you want to move. Common entities supported for migration from Zoey to Volusion include:
- Products (including SKUs, variants, attributes, images)
- Product Categories
- Product Reviews
- Customers (including customer groups)
- Orders (including order statuses, invoices)
- Coupons
- CMS Pages
You can select all entities or pick them individually based on your specific requirements. This ensures only the necessary data is transferred, maintaining data integrity.
Step 5: Configure Additional Migration Options
The wizard offers a range of additional options to customize your migration. These can significantly impact your store's functionality and SEO after the move. Consider enabling options such as:
- Migrate Images in Product Descriptions: Ensures that all embedded product images are carried over.
- Clear Target Store Data: Useful if you’re migrating to a fresh Volusion installation and want to remove any placeholder data. Learn more about clearing target store data.
- Preserve Product, Order, and Customer IDs: Maintains your existing IDs, which can be crucial for inventory management, order fulfillment, and historical data. Understand how Preserve IDs options work.
- Migrate Passwords: Allows your customers to log in to your new Volusion store with their existing credentials, enhancing user experience.
- Create 301 Redirects for SEO URLs: This is vital for maintaining your SEO rankings and link equity. It ensures that old Zoey URLs automatically redirect to the corresponding new Volusion URLs, preventing broken links and a drop in search engine visibility.
Step 6: Map Data (Customer Groups and Order Statuses)
To ensure consistency, you will need to map your Zoey customer groups and order statuses to their equivalents in Volusion. This step ensures that, for instance, a “Wholesale Customer” group in Zoey correctly maps to a “Wholesale” group (or similar) in Volusion, and an “Order Pending” status in Zoey aligns with the corresponding status in your new store.
Step 7: Run Demo Migration and Full Migration
Before committing to the full data transfer, we highly recommend running a free demo migration. This allows you to transfer a limited number of entities (e.g., a few products, customers, and orders) to your Volusion store to review the accuracy and completeness of the data. Once satisfied, proceed with the full migration. During the full migration, you may also consider a Migration Insurance Plan, which offers remigrations for a specified period, providing peace of mind. Find out more about how Migration Insurance works.
Post-Migration Steps
Completing the data transfer is a significant achievement, but the journey doesn't end there. Thorough post-migration checks are crucial for ensuring your new Volusion store is fully functional and optimized.
- Conduct Comprehensive Testing: Rigorously test your new Volusion store. Check product pages, verify customer accounts, place test orders, ensure payment gateways are working, and test all internal links and navigation. Pay close attention to product variants, SKUs, and imagery to ensure everything transferred correctly.
- Verify 301 Redirects: If you opted for 301 redirects, confirm they are working as expected by testing old Zoey URLs. This is paramount for preserving your SEO rankings and providing a seamless user experience.
- Update DNS Records: Once you are confident that your Volusion store is fully operational, update your domain's DNS settings to point to your new Volusion hosting. Plan this step carefully to minimize downtime for your customers.
- SEO Audit and Optimization: Perform an SEO audit to check for any broken links that might have been missed. Submit your new sitemap to search engines (Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools) to expedite re-indexing.
- Review and Refine: Take this opportunity to review your store’s design, user experience, and overall functionality. Volusion offers many tools to help optimize your store for conversions.
- Consider Recent Data Migration: If new orders or customer registrations occurred on your old Zoey store during the migration, you can use a Recent Data Migration Service to transfer these latest updates.
By following these steps, your transition from Zoey to Volusion will be efficient and successful, allowing you to leverage your new platform's capabilities with confidence. Should you encounter any challenges or require additional assistance, don't hesitate to contact us.

Many of my customers have Magento 1 stores. This year Magento will stop supporting this system and because of this these customers need to migrate to another system. Migration can be difficult and very time consuming process. But then i found Cart2Cart. There solution is the best and affordable. With the first migration there where some problems, but i did made some mistakes with filling in the correct fields to get a connection between the current and the target store. After starting a chat these problems where fixed very quickly. Support is very good and there solution is very affordable. The perfect solution!

We were in need of migrating 10.000 orders & customers from a PrestaShop site to a Magento site, already being in use. We therefore needed to be extra careful not to erase any of the existing data, which is why we seeked out the service of Cart2Cart. With a readily available customer service providing guidance and support during the entire process, we felt secure in the choice of Cart2Cart. We also enjoyed the possibility to do a test migration to be able to verify the values, before going ahead with a full migration. The full migration was surprisingly quick, within just a couple of minutes we had successfully transfered all the data, without experiencing any issues on the site. I’d recommend Cart2Cart to anyone who are looking to simplify the process of migrating.
